Product Description

The Vox AC15C1X is a Limited-Edition VOX Custom Series guitar combo amp with a Celestion Alnico Blue Speaker. Includes two channels; Normal and Top-Boost. Each channel is equipped with its own Volume control; the Top Boost channel offers highly interactive Treble and Bass tone controls. The Tone Cut control operates in the power stage rather than the preamp stage, allowing an additional degree of tone-shaping. The Master Volume control works in conjunction with the individual volumes of each channel to create just the right degree of gain-staging. By balancing the individual and Master volumes, the Custom Series can deliver the coveted clean VOX "chimey" sound or a powerful overdriven tone - and everything in between.

An Evolution in Tone

VOX Custom Series amps offer two channels: Normal and Top-Boost. Each channel is equipped with its own Volume control, and the Top Boost channel offers highly interactive Treble and Bass tone controls. This powerful channel pairing provides an abundance of tone-crafting control, letting you dial in a classic sound that is all your own.

Both channels rely on the Tone Cut and Volume controls in the Master section. The Tone Cut control operates in the power stage rather than the preamp stage, allowing an additional degree of tone-shaping. The Master Volume control works in conjunction with the individual volumes of each channel to create just the right degree of gain-staging. By balancing the individual and Master volumes, the Custom Series can deliver everything from a clean VOX "chimey" sound to a powerful overdriven tone.

Sound in Motion

You can sweeten the sound of your Custom Series amplifier using the VOX Classic Tremolo effect. Both the speed and the depth are adjustable, allowing you to generate just the sound you want. A warm Spring Reverb is also included on all Custom Series amps, adding spaciousness to the sound. All Custom Series amps can use the VOX VFS2 footswitch, allowing you to turn the Reverb and Tremolo effects on and off as you continue to play.

Power Sharing

The AC15C1 combo makes use of 3 x 12AX7 preamp tubes and uses pair of EL84 tubes to drive a single 12" Celestion speaker. You can choose either the AC15C1 with a Celestion G12M Greenback speaker or the AC15C1X loaded with a Celestion Alinco Blue speaker. All models in the Custom Series offer a switchable 8/16 ohm output jack for powering an external speaker cabinet when you need to speak with a little more authority; using this jack will mute the internal speakers. Additionally, a 2nd extension speaker jack allows you to run an extra 16 ohm cabinet along with the internal speakers for a fuller sound.

"This thing rocks!"

Overall:
This is the first new amp that I have purchased in 11 years. I have always, and understandably, loved the Vox and Fender Princeton tone. I decided to go with the Vox, and couldn't be happier. I opted for the custom version with the Alnico Blue speaker, and it hasn't disappointed. Make no mistake that this thing gets loud! The Vox "chime" is unmistakable, and the clean tones are excellent. It also sounds amazing when you dial in that natural overdrive.Lastly, I have had this thing for a month, and it keeps sounds better the more broken in that it gets. If you don't like this product, then you may have been looking in the wrong direction in the first place.Cheers! Play on!

"Excellent Amp!"

Overall:
I always wanted a proper Vox. I started with the Night Train - ended up parting with it after a few gigs. This - the AC151CX - is extremely aweseome. I can get the classic Vox sound and pretty much any jazzy, blues to blues-rock sound. Actually, pretty good at country sounds too. The Blue Celestion speaker really makes a difference too. Quite happy with this purchase.
